A beautiful day

We spent the day at one of the best places on earth. It was at "Die Strandloper" (the beachwalker) in Langebaan. That is a restaurant where you spend the whole day eating fish, walking around, swimming and drinking. You bring your own booze and they get you food. And what food that is! It started with mussels, gigantic ones, they make the ones in Holland look like shrimps, after that grilled fish, followed by a fish paella, crab/crayfish, snoek, angel fish... I'm problably forgetting something. Between all the fish you could eat as much freshly baked bread with homemade marmalade and real butter as you liked. Wow. And everything was cooked right under your nose; the fish on the braai, the stews in the black iron pots and the bread in old round ovens heated by wood. Even the guy who played guitar wasn't annoying, as those restaurant musicans usually are. He gave the place a nice relaxed athmosphere. What a day is has been..............
